| Purpose: The Inner Canon of Huangdi provides a comprehensive discussion of the basic theories and academic thoughts on the preventive treatment of disease,initially builds a theoretical system for the preventive treatment of disease,and lays a solid foundation for the development of health maintenance in the preventive treatment of disease.At present,academic research on the preventive treatment of disease is more inclined to the field of health maintenance,Many scholars on health rules of research mostly focused on health rules,diet,daily living,sports and other aspects of health,but in the complexity of the scientific level of grasp and interpretation are ignored to varying degrees.Therefore,this paper tries to study the theory of the preventive treatment of disease in The Inner Canon of Huangdi from the perspective of complexity systems science and explore the scientific connotation of“preventive treatment of disease” by using complexity systems science thinking.Methods: This paper mainly discusses the complexity science of the theory of the preventive treatment of disease in The Inner Canon of Huangdi.Firstly,on the basis of a large number of ancient and modern literature,it adopts the methods of literature research and logical reasoning to systematically sort out and study the era,society and ideological background of the theory of “the preventive treatment of disease” in The Inner Canon of Huangdi,focusing on the theoretical system and content of the theory of “the preventive treatment of disease” in The Inner Canon of Huangdi.It also discusses in detail the influence and development of this thought on the later generations,and then studies and interprets its concept,principle and content from the perspective of complexity science.Finally,it summarizes the scientific enlightenment of the theory of treating diseases in The Inner Canon of Huangdi.Results:(1)The theory of curing diseases in The Inner Canon of Huangdi has a long history,which originated more than 2,000 years ago.It is very rich in content and has a far-reaching influence on later generations,spreading to various schools and thoughts.(2)The preventive treatment of disease in The Inner Canon of Huangdi not only involves the theory of Yin and Yang and the five elements,Chinese era,disease differentiation and diagnosis,acupuncture and drug treatment,but also involves the major exploration results of the origin of the universe,so as to give guidance to modern health care in various aspects,and also give significant enlightenment to modern scientific research and scientific development.(3)Complexity science is an emerging scientific perspective in the 21 st century.It is of great theoretical value and practical significance to improve the medical and academic thoughts in today’s society to open the theory of preventive treatment of disease in The Inner Canon of Huangdi from this perspective.(4)The Inner Canon of Huangdi regards Tao or Qi as the origin of all things in the universe,and holds that Qi and modern unified field have many compatible characteristics,such as originality,chaos,infinite expansibility and evolution,which are similar to the unified field in modern physics.(5)The principle of “unity of man and nature” and “Taoist nature” emphasized in the theory of preventive treatment of disease in The Inner Canon of Huangdi also has something in common with the wholeness of nature and man revealed by the chaos theory in complexity science.(6)The Inner Canon of Huangdi holds that the human body is an open system closely connected with nature and society,which constantly exchanges material,energy and information with the outside world.Conclusion: The Inner Canon of Huangdi introduced the theory of Tao-Qi origin,and used it to construct the theoretical system of “preventive treatment of disease”,and expounded the concept of “treating and preventing diseases with the unity of nature and man”.The theory of Tao-Qi origin and modern unified field theory,self-organization theory,chaos theory has a qualitative similarity.Practice has proved that only from the perspective of complex system science can the theory of preventive treatment of disease in The Inner Canon of Huangdi understand the nonlinear scientific characteristics of traditional culture.It has become a new direction of academic innovation to follow the trend of The Times and introduce complex scientific thinking to study the idea of “ preventive treatment of disease”.Once this kind of thinking is successfully successfully enlightening human,it is bound to cause a thinking innovation in the field of Chinese medicine. |
